Acar initially traveling at a speed of 16 meters per second accelerates uniformly to a speed of 20 meters per second over a distance of 36 meters. what is the magnitude of the car's acceleration?

The formula for calculating acceleration can be derived from:

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

where a is acceleration, v is final velocity, v0 is initial velocity and d is distance

Rewriting in terms of a:

a = (v^2 – v0^2) / 2 d

a = (20^2 – 16^2) / (2 * 36)

a = 2 m/s^2 

The magnitude of the car's acceleration is

Step by Step Solution :

Given :

Final Speed, v = 20 m/sec

Initial Speed, u = 16 m/sec

Distance Covered, s = 36 m

Calculation :

We know that,

--- (1)

Now from equation (1),

The magnitude of the car's acceleration is

wind moving at higher speeds will transfer more energy to the water, resulting in stronger waves.

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
